The Institute of Research, Development and Innovation in Healthcare Biotechnology of Elche (IDiBE) at the UMH is organizing, within the framework of European Night activities, a new session of \u2018Science with Tapas\u2019 at the Alicante Fnac to take place on November 5, albeit on this occasion with a reduced audience and electronic streaming.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify\">Another initiative led by the UMH is a virtual encounter on social media with scientific communicators taking place on November 24. Participants here include mathematician, Santi Garc\u00eda Cremades (@santigarciacc); paleontologist, Francesc Gasc\u00f3 (@dinozoic); and biotechnologist, Luc\u00eda Almagro (@diariodeunacientifica), and these will stream a three-way conversation on why it is important for society to be aware of science. Moreover, the editors of UMH scientific journal, <em>Sapiens<\/em>, are giving an online seminar with guidance on how to talk about science, taking place November 26, beginning at 5 p.m.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify\">MUDIC, the Didactic and Interactive Science Museum of the Vega Baja, is also joining the European Researchers\u2019 Night, and offering numerous activities in promotion of science to commemorate the museum\u2019s 12th anniversary. Throughout the month of November, it is also making a repository available to the public wherein informative material for people of all ages will be published, including workshops, experiments, and scientific tidbits to take advantage of \u2018Science from your Living Room.\u2019 Details about the remaining activities will be provided in upcoming weeks.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify\">All the information about the Mediterranean Researchers\u2019 Night is available on its <a href=\"https:\/\/mednight.eu\/\">website<\/a>. On it, the participating entities report on their activities, publish news, and disseminate some of the recent research ongoing within their laboratories, linked to different subjects of this event. Included among these are geology &amp; biodiversity, sea &amp; pollution, climate &amp; clean energy, diet &amp; food, life &amp; health, history &amp; culture, pioneering &amp; future scientists.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify\">Mednight was born out of collaboration by a consortium of 12 entities: the UMH, University of Murcia, Technical University of Cartagena, University of Alicante, University of Valencia, Universitat Polit\u00e8cnica de Val\u00e8ncia, Universitat Jaume I, Fisabio Foundation, Seneca Foundation &#8211; Science and Technology Agency in the Region of Murcia, INCLIVA, and the Spanish National Research Council (CSIC), coordinated by El Caleidoscopio, and sponsored by the Generalitat Valenciana through the Valencian Community Foundation for the Promotion of Higher Education (FFES).<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify\">The Mednight project is an event associated with the European Researchers\u2019 Night initiative by the European Union. It receives funding through Marie Sk\u0142odowska-Curie Actions, with call identifier H2020-MSCA-NIGHT-2020.<\/p>\n<p><\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>To highlight Mediterranean science, the Miguel Hern\u00e1ndez University of Elche (UMH) and 11 of the most representative entities for scientific research and dissemination from the Valencian Community and Region of Murcia have joined forces to celebrate \u2018Mednight,\u2019 the inaugural Mediterranean Researchers\u2019 Night.
